What it does

Utm Attribution Strategy is an agent skill from thatrebeccarae/claude-marketing. UTM parameter strategy, campaign tracking, and marketing attribution modeling. Build consistent UTM taxonomies, configure attribution models, measure cross-channel performance, and connect marketing spend to revenue. Use when the user asks about UTM parameters, campaign tracking, attribution models, marketing measurement, or cross-channel analytics.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `EXAMPLES.md` and `REFERENCE.md`).

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Marketing analytics. The repository describes itself as: A full marketing department for Claude Code. Skill packs for Klaviyo, Shopify, GA4, Looker Studio, paid media, and more. Audit, optimize, and report using natural language. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks about UTM parameters
  • Campaign tracking
  • Attribution models
  • Marketing measurement

Example prompts

  • “/utm-attribution-strategy”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. UTMs on internal links — breaks session attribution, inflates source counts
  2. Inconsistent naming — Facebook vs facebook vs fb creates 3 separate sources
  3. Missing utm_medium — traffic falls into "(other)" channel grouping
  4. Non-standard utm_medium values — use GA4 recognized values for proper channel grouping
  5. UTMs on organic search results — Google auto-tags organic; adding UTMs creates duplicate sources
  6. PII in UTM parameters — email addresses or user IDs in URLs violate privacy policies
  7. Forgetting post-click tracking — UTMs track the click, not what happens after

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a8a63ec. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Utm Attribution Strategy loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 94 tokens; SKILL.md has 590 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~94
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

GA4 Attribution

GA4 uses data-driven attribution by default. Key settings:

  • Reporting attribution model: Set in Admin > Attribution Settings
  • Lookback window: 30 days (click) / 7 days (view) default
  • Conversion paths: Analyze in Advertising > Attribution > Conversion Paths
Choosing a Model
Sales cycle < 7 days → Last Click or Data-Driven
Sales cycle 7-30 days → Position-Based or Data-Driven
Sales cycle > 30 days → Time Decay or Data-Driven
Brand awareness focus → First Click
Performance marketing focus → Last Click
Balanced view needed → Position-Based
1000+ monthly conversions → Data-Driven (always)

UTM Audit Checklist

  • All paid campaigns have UTM parameters
  • Naming convention documented and shared with team
  • No mixed case (utm_source=Google vs google)
  • No spaces in parameter values (use hyphens)
  • utm_medium values align with GA4 default channel groupings
  • Internal links do NOT have UTM parameters (breaks attribution)
  • UTM parameters are on the landing page URL, not post-redirect
  • No PII in UTM parameters (names, emails, account IDs)
  • Short URLs / link shorteners preserve UTM parameters
  • Redirects preserve UTM parameters (302s can strip them)

Common Mistakes

  1. UTMs on internal links — breaks session attribution, inflates source counts
  2. Inconsistent naming — Facebook vs facebook vs fb creates 3 separate sources
  3. Missing utm_medium — traffic falls into "(other)" channel grouping
  4. Non-standard utm_medium values — use GA4 recognized values for proper channel grouping
  5. UTMs on organic search results — Google auto-tags organic; adding UTMs creates duplicate sources
  6. PII in UTM parameters — email addresses or user IDs in URLs violate privacy policies
  7. Forgetting post-click tracking — UTMs track the click, not what happens after

Integration with Other Skills

  • google-analytics — UTM data flows into GA4 for analysis
  • google-ads — Google auto-tags with gclid; UTMs are supplementary
  • facebook-ads — Meta auto-tags with fbclid; UTMs needed for GA4 attribution
  • linkedin-ads — LinkedIn requires manual UTM configuration
  • tiktok-ads — TikTok requires manual UTM configuration
